Federal and state discrimination laws make it illegal to discriminate against a member of a protected class. Under these laws, protected classes are race, national origin, sex, religion, age and disability. It is illegal to discriminate when hiring, firing, promoting, or changing the terms and conditions of employment. There is a federal agency in charge of enforcing the law, the United States Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC), and Rhode Island and Massachusetts each have their own state agencies responsible for handling employment claims, the Rhode Island Commission for Human Rights (RICHR) and the Massachusetts Commission Against Discrimination (MCAD).

There is a time limit for filing discrimination claims. If you have been discriminated against, contact a lawyer at d’Oliveira & Associates by filling out this Contact Form or call our toll-free number: 1-800 99-COURT (1-800-992-6878) before your time expires.
